Chapter 245

ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー

It turned out, this beautiful lady with strong-willed eyes was Lady Laila and apparently, she was Heinrich’s fiancée. According to what I heard, she was the daughter of a certain count and because of Heinrich’s exile, their engagement was of course… Called off. However, Lady Laila caused quite a commotion that Jill-san found hard to explain. It seemed they were in quite precarious situations.

And now, with Heinrich being allowed to return to his house thanks to his achievement in the previous battle, Lady Laila once again brought the topic of their marriage again. It seemed her father, the count, lost to Lady Laia’s persistence.

Hey, Heinrich. How lucky you are. Look at you, that lady loves you so much, you know? But despite that, why do you look so pale? And why are you kneeling on the floor like that?

On the other hand, Lady Laila was standing imposingly with a scary expression, resembling an Asura mask.

However, all doubts I had were quickly dispelled the moment I watched the two of them interacting with each other.

It seemed Heinrich had been avoiding Lady Laila despite the revival of their marriage. Jill-san had been begging Heinrich about this issue, partly for Bavarian-sama and partly for Lady Laila herself. Apparently even after Heinrich was exiled from Resta, Lady Laila had been sending him letters regularly and even offered to support him but instead of receiving her generous offer, Heinrich refused it all. He activated some sort of strange chuunibyou mode and went on a journey for self discovery or something.

Honestly, I’m surprised Lady Laila is not fed up with Heinrich yet… If I were her I would go,”How dare you!” and dump him…..

At first, Lady Laila came on strong on Heinrich but it seemed after seeing Heinrich with her own eyes, all tension left her body. Tears welled up in her eyes and soon enough, she bursted into tears. Heinrich immediately went pale. He was desperately trying to calm Lady Laila down.

“Huh…? What is this? I feel like I’m having a déjà vu….”

For some reason, a particular memory of a bald weapon shop owner and a beautiful merchant being deeply in love, flashed through my mind.

It seemed this world had a lot of hot-tempered women.

The mood between Heinrich and Lady Laila gradually became more and more sickly sweet. I was this close to leaving them when someone called out to me.

“Keigo Okuda! 〇××!! 〇△potion△◆〇 !!”

“Ah, Bavarian-sama… And… Who might this gentleman be?”

Bavarian-sama appeared, along with an old man with a magnificent beard but a somewhat desolate hair on his head. Upon seeing this, Heinrich, Jill-san and Lady Laila panicked and immediately kneeled on the ground, looking obviously flustered.

Just what is going on now…?
